LOS ANGELES. - Mr. and Mrs. Pat
Buckley, of Buckley Music Systems and
Buckley Trading Post of Chicago, are en-
joying a vacation in Los Angeles and stop-
ping at the beautiful Ambassador Hotel.
Pat has been catching up on his sleep,
enjoying a well-earned rest, and spending
leisure time visiting with prominents in the
trade and taking in local sights. In addi-
tion Pat spent consideraille time wi!h Bud
Parr of General Music, discussing business
activities after the war is won.

was reorganizing its lines for a direct }is-
sault . . . The mining region of Idaho,
along with the "boot" camp at Bayview,
has given A . F. McFee of Wallace a chance
to strike a near bonanza. A recent survey
of Coeur d' Alene revealed that the average
weekly earnings of workers is $85.00; like

Word has filtered through the military

formerly operating for Joe Hart, is now an
army captain somewhere in continental
U.S.A . . . . Wilma Larsen, the lass with

a 320 acre ranch in Ellensburg ... Appar-
ently that main event on the world-wide
fight card-Axis versus Allies for the cham-
